Radio Legend Ryan Cameron Leaves Atlanta’s V-103 After 18 Years

“What I need to do is better myself”

Hip-hop loves its veterans. When oldies of the industry retire, the entire community takes a moment to remember their contributions and wish them off. Well, Ryan Cameron, welcome to your moment.

Okay, retirement may be a strong word for what’s happening here, but it is arguably the most accurate. After all, it doesn’t seem like Cameron plans on coming back to radio. The radio personality will surely be working, but his voice won’t fill the airwaves anymore.

“I have done everything I can in this field,” said Cameron, according to The AJC. “It’s time for another chapter in my life.”

“My tenure here at V-103 has been the most fulfilling thing I could ever have done but I have to feel there’s something else that I can do,” he continued.

This news comes after Cameron has been an on-again, off-again member of the Atlanta radio scene since 1991. The radio personality left V-103 Atlanta in 1996, after being with the station five years, to do mornings at Atlanta’s Hot 97.5 for eights years.

Afterwards, he returned to his home station, staying their until Feb. 2, 2018, his reported last day.
